Thanks. I did find and read through that guide in my searching. But it's dated from before the US release of the hardware, so I was hoping the situation had changed since then. I'm pretty hesitant to do some of the steps in that process to a piece of hardware which I do not own. Have Sony not...

Hey, Vita friends. I have never played any PlayStation console or handheld, but a friend of mine insisted I borrow his PS Vita to take on holiday with me. So I thought I would play some TPA on it (and Zen 2, which comes out while I'm on the beach). I created a PSN account on the web, but I can't...

That means somebody else somewhere on the freenode network (who has likely never heard of The Pinball Arcade) has registered that nick with NickServ. So you are being challenged for their password when you attempt to impersonate them. You'll need to choose another name or add some characters to...

Oh shi… George just img-timelined this thread into dust.

This is a super solid point right here.

That sound is really annoying. And it's not just on initial entry. You get to hear it with every step of the UI navigation. The worst part is that it plays once per key press rather than once per menu action taken. So when I have a frustrating drain that causes me to do the "new game" menu...

Marvel are going to charge a lot more than $45,000 for that. I get the point you're trying to make, but not all licensing deals are created equal. The pricetag variation will span orders of magnitude.

Mine too.

It is, yes. The largest but not only.

Simpsons and Family Guy would be orders of magnitude easier to secure digital pinball licenses for than The Addams Family.

Killer app.

My CPU is a neural net processor; a learning computer.

Oh, it's by no means as infuriating as seeing the table suddenly fail to find enough digital pinballs to continue your game, certainly. But it's just kind of jank.

Wait, that DSiWare table was you guys too?! No way! I loved that. When I first bought my 3DS and did the system transfer, that was the only thing that refused to depart my DSi, and it was the only thing I really cared about keeping through the transition. A sad day indeed. I'd like to +1 the...

This happens to me on Gorgar about once every third game.

If you're going to be super negative all the time in non-specific, unconstructive, and hyperbolic ways, please go join your compatriots on the TPA Facebook page.

Yeah, why wouldn't they? It's free money, as someone else already stated. If I were running FarSight, I probably wouldn't be able to resist the urge to keep doing them until one failed to fund, at least.

If I'm being honest, I would probably kick in a tenner to any licensed table they care to kickstart, but I'd be pretty surprised if they go to this well again. As you say, the two they've approach so far are the picks of the litter.

Yes, even if you're just violating your terms of use agreement in that manner instead of some other manner. They know how many consoles have authorized content signed to your profile. There is some sensible threshold above which you are probably trading.

Right, you are describing the legitimate and intended use. But there has been a rash lately of accounts engaging in the "trading" of downloads with random other users.
